I heard that they were planning to make this book into a film about 2 years ago I'm so glad Ioan's involved in the project.

Meanwhile, I noticed the this project has been added to Ioan filmography on IMDb.

I am currently about half-way through the book, "The Little White Horse", which was easy to get at my local public library, and I'd really like to hear what some of you might think of it???? I'll probably be finished with it in a few more sittings. It's not a SHORT childrens' tale.

Oh Shipmate, I'd love to hear what character you think Ioan might play.

I look forward to your comments about the book, Shipmate. I've looked for it at my local library, without luck... it is not available from there...

Hi Frances, I notice that Amazon.com had it, but didn't pay as much attention as I should to its price. ~~~~~~~~~ Miss GG, I've got some personal ideas about that (probably wrong ones), and would like to share them with you.

Actually, I've looked it up on Amazon.com and they sell it new at around 6 US$. I'm not sure I want to buy it though; perhaps I'll fill in a purchase proposal form at my local library and see if they can find it.

Sounds like a good plan to me!

So glad we have something new to look forward to from Ioan. Being a childrens book it is something the whole family can enjoy. Like many, I do like costume/period movies. Especially with Ioan in them. :applaud:

It will definitely be a period piece,Queen9ers, and I'm already looking forward to seeing what will be done with it. Should be good family-fare, if they stick to the basic story,of course.

Quite interesting to read about all the elements and countries involved in this production. Shooting in Hungary most likely increases the amount of value they can get for the budget. Still no mention of the role Ioan is playing. Hmmm! I did read somewhere that Natascha McElhone is playing several roles. I wonder if that's the same in Ioan's case. That would sure be fun. Thanks Annee.

Annee, you're our girl!!! Thanks for the info.........most interesting. Hmmmm, think I'm figuring out pretty much about the characters, and we just might be seeing LOTS of Ioan in this one,if I'm reading the book correctly,that is!!!!!!!! Cool! Am I crazy?!! Does this movie come to the US? Are those distributors affiliated with those in this country? I hope that the movie will make it to American theaters! I'll be disappointed if it doesn't!

I certainly hope it gets the distributed like Bridge to Terabitha since it is the same director. That's not usualy the determining factor, but since it's a similar genre, one can hope. Bridge to Terabithia actually played in this area.
